SYTYCD Results

without comments

Well I pretty much got it right. I’m very excited that Courtney made it through instead of Chelsea and I really didn’t expect Mark to out-vote Twitch. Going to be a great top 4: Katee and Joshua for final 2, I’d say……

SYTYCD Final 6 Thoughts

without comments

Round 1 to: Mark and Joshua, Katee and Chelsea.

Wow, Mark and Courtney were on fire in their jazz number – Twitch probably has the popular vote to carry him through but he should be worried. I feel bad for Courtney, great dancer, awesome tonight, but I don’t see her having the support that Katee or Chelsea have.

Round 2 to: Joshua and Mark, Katee and Courtney

Based solely on tonight, I think it should be Joshua, Mark, Katee and Courtney (Chelsea loses solely on her lame ballroom solos) but I think Twitch and Chelsea will make it instead. We’ll see!

Does Anybody Know About the Quake?!

without comments

Yeah, I was stood making a pulled pork sandwich in the kitchen at work when I felt the building slip and slide. I’d been feeling a bit dizzy from not eating but quickly realised this was an earthquake and not a blood sugar problem.

I finished making my sandwich, intending to get back to the computer to see where it was centered but on the way to my cube most everybody had the earthquake page up so I could see that it was a 5.8 east of LA. It felt big enough this far away to make us take notice, that’s for sure.

Oh, and 10 points to the first person to give me the song reference in the title. (yeah, too easy I know).

SYTYCD – The Results!

without comments

Ok, Will and Comfort in the bottom two so far.. I am 2/2…..

Mark’s up…. a little early in the order for him to be in the bottom two but surely he is the one going home tonight?

OMG, he’s safe?! I think he thought he was going home, too. No way Will is going home yet so is it Joshua?

No, no, no, Twitch in the bottom two??? No way can he be going home tonight, but now I’m worried. Got the girls right, at least.

So – Comfort and Will?

Awesome solo from Courtney, just brilliant. And Twitch – no one does it like him. If he goes, I’ll be very sad..

Bye Bye Comfort, you should have gone last week.

Phew, Twitch survives but I am very surprised about Will leaving tonight.

Mark and Courtney next week, I think.

And America? Vote for Twitch next week, don’t assume he is safe!

without comments

Ok, the final 8, keep checking back for live updates…..

Final Scores….

Joshua and Chelsea – 17
Mark and Comfort – 13
Twitch and Katee – 17
Will and Courtney – 17

If I factor in the solos, and individual performances amongst the partner dances, my prediction for bottom two:

Guys: Mark, Will.
Girls: Comfort, Courtney (but maybe my beloved Katee).

Going home: Comfort and Mark.
